In a completely regulated society, where being a minute late here and there shortens your life accordingly, the Ticktockman is king; Harlequin is the jellybean joker who wants to knock him from his perch. Rick Berry's dark, lush illustrations magnify the force of a story that reminds readers of the best parts of George Orwell's <I>1984</i> or Terry Gilliam's <i>Brazil</i>. 987713 book 10 1997 Repent, Harlequin!
